Focus the students’ attention on the photo. Look at the title of the article and explain that the photo shows a geisha (a professional Japanese entertainer). Read the sentences aloud to the class and, as you read each one, ask the students to discuss in pairs whether they think it’s true or false.

Groupwork. If you have a multinational class, put students from the same country in the same group. Ask the students to discuss whether the statement in Exercise 1 are true for their country or not, and then report back to the class on their decisions.

Pronunciation (SB page 69)

2 Ask the students to read the article and see whether they were right about the statements in Exercise 1. Explain any difficult vocabulary and ask the students to say if they were surprised by any of the information in the text. a)  False    b)  True    c)  True    d)  True    e)  False    f)  False    g)  True

3 Ask the students whether Makiko’s parents were happy about her becoming a geisha. (Not really – they would have preferred her to go to university and become a doctor.) Then ask them to think about what their parents and/or grandparents wanted them to study at school. Go through the example with the class and then ask the students to work in pairs to discuss their answer to the question. (If your students are still at school, they can discuss what their parents’ hopes for their future are and whether they’ll follow their advice or not.)

Cultural note Geisha \"geISE\ Geishas are female Japanese entertainers. They’re skilled in all traditional Japanese arts. They wear expensive, silk kimonos and paint their faces a vivid white. Eighty years ago there were more than 80,000 geishas in Japan. Now there are fewer than a thousand. Geishas these days are likely to be hired for special events.

2.28

I wasn’t very academic at school, but I loved art. Yes, art was my favourite subject because I was good at it. We had a wonderful teacher – she was called Miss Lewis, and I remember the first day she arrived at school. She didn’t look like a teacher. She had long black hair, and she wore bright colours. She was quite young – thirty, thirty-one, something like that, and we all fell in love with her – boys and girls! She wasn’t just beautiful – she was a really good teacher, too. Her lessons were interesting and varied. We only had three hours of art each week on Wednesday afternoons. Miss Lewis loved photography and she taught us how to develop our own photographs. I really enjoyed that, and for a while I wanted to be a professional photographer. In the end, I realised that it was difficult to make a living as a photographer so I went to university and studied engineering. But I still love taking photos and recently I won a competition – Miss Lewis would be proud of me!

• Check answers with the class and explain any difficult vocabulary. a) Because there was no other way of getting there. b) Because he had to go to church. c) Because he had to do his homework every night. d) Because the government gave him a grant to study. e) Because Louise found out she was pregnant. f) To pay for the luxuries he wants.

3 Look at the example with the class, then put the students into pairs to discuss how life has changed in their families over the generations. Encourage them to report back to the class on their discussions.

2 • Give the students a minute or two to decide what they’re going to talk about. Then ask them to look at the questions in Exercise 1 again and decide how they’d answer them about the school subject they’re going to talk about. Allow them to make notes on what they’re going to say and how they’re going to say it, but discourage them from writing a paragraph that they can simply read out. Go round, monitoring and giving help.

could and had to

• Go through the example with the class and then ask the students to work individually to complete the other sentences. Go round, monitoring and giving help.

1 • Go through the information in the margin with the class and explain the difference between permission (you’re allowed to do something) and obligation (you’re required to do something). Point out that the negative forms of have to mean lack of obligation rather than prohibition. Ask several students to read out the example sentences.

• Play the recording for students to check their answers and repeat the sentences, before asking them to check with the article on page 70 and choose the correct answers to the questions. a) ‘Did Gordon have to obey his dad without question?’ ‘Yes, he did.’ ‘No, he didn’t.’ b) ‘Did Gordon have to go to church on Sundays?’ ‘Yes, he did.’ ‘No, he didn’t.’ c) ‘Could Gordon bring his girlfriends home?’ ‘Yes, he could.’ ‘No, he couldn’t.’ d) ‘Did Tony have to do his homework every night?’ ‘Yes, he did.’ ‘No, he didn’t,’ e) ‘Could Scott come home at any time?’ ‘Yes, he could’ ‘No, he couldn’t.’ f) ‘Does Scott have to hide things from his dad?’ ‘Yes, he does.’ ‘No, he doesn’t.’

• Focus attention on the table and ask the students to complete it with the correct forms of can and have to. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

can could can’t couldn’t have to had to don’t have to didn’t have to

Language notes

a) Yes, he did. b) Yes, he did. c) No, he couldn’t. d) Yes, he did. e) Yes, he could. f) No, he doesn’t.

Grammar: could • Could is a modal verb. In this unit, could is used to talk generally about permission in the past (i.e. that you were allowed to do something over a period of time in the past). • As with all other modal verbs, could is followed by the infinitive (without to), and doesn’t use do/ did to form questions and negative statements.

2.30

Could you smoke at school? (i.e. were you allowed to smoke?)

• Go through the example with the class and demonstrate how the questions need to be altered to make them suitable for asking other members of the class.

No, we couldn’t. It was against the rules. (i.e. we weren’t allowed to smoke).

• Put the students in pairs to take turns asking and answering the questions.

Grammar: have to • Have to is used to talk about obligation/necessity (i.e. that you’re required to do something). • Have/had to is followed by the infinitive. You use do/did to form questions and negative statements. Did you have to do homework every day? (i.e. was is necessary to do homework every day?) No, we didn’t have to do it every day. Three times a week, usually. (i.e. it wasn’t necessary to do it every day).

4 Pairwork • The pairwork exercise for this unit is on pages 118 and 123 of the Student’s Book. Put the students in pairs and tell them who will be Student A, and who will be Student B. • While they’re doing the exercise, go round monitoring and giving help. Take note of any errors which may need particular attention later, and also any examples of good language use which you can praise.

5 Grammar Extra, Part 1 Ask the students to turn to Grammar Extra 8, Part 1 on page 140 of the Student’s Book. Here they’ll find an explanation of the grammar they’ve been studying and further exercises to practise it.

G: I was proud to do military service. In my day, a man had to be a man. Not like these days – men and women look exactly the same to me. In my day, you couldn’t have long hair, or wear earrings or carry a handbag like some men do nowadays. S: Ha ha. But some things were more difficult in your day, Grandad – like travelling. G: That’s right, we couldn’t travel by air like you do today – it was too expensive. But we travelled by train and bus. I remember the first time I went to France …

2 • Go through the example with the class and emphasise the different forms of the verbs for ‘then’ and ‘now’. • Ask the students to work individually to write sentences for the other prompts. Go round, monitoring and giving help. • Play the recording again for the students to check and amend their answers if necessary. Then check answers with the class.

2.31 (S = Scott; G = Gordon)

S: Fasten your seatbelt, Grandad. G: But I’m sitting in the back. S: Yes, and you have to fasten your seatbelt in the back now. G: Oh dear. All these rules and regulations. In my day, we didn’t have to wear seatbelts at all. S: And it was much more dangerous. G: But we didn’t drive so fast. And there weren’t so many cars on the road. In my day, we couldn’t drive fast because there weren’t any motorways. S: I thought you drove a horse and cart in your day. G: Hmm, very funny. Actually, I had a beautiful motorbike – a Triumph – and I didn’t have to wear a helmet. Not like nowadays. S: Do you really think life was better in your day, Grandad? G: Well, life was less complicated. For example, we didn’t have all these credit cards in my day. We had to use cash to buy things S: But not everything was better, Grandad. You had to do military service – I wouldn’t like that.

3 • Elicit a few changes from the class and put them up on the board before you put the students into pairs to discuss the differences. In multinational classes it may be helpful to have pairs of students from the same country. Encourage them to think of any other differences between then and now and to report back to the class.

Reading & Listening (SB page 72) 1 • Ask the students if they would like to tell the class about a situation in which they met a girlfriend’s/ boyfriend’s parents for the first time. • Explain the situation and tell them that they have to decide which of the pieces of advice is most important. Ask them to discuss this in pairs and report back to the class.
